On October 27, Jihad Watch published a post entitled “Andrew Tate, ‘influencer’ accused of misogyny, converts to Islam.” Robert Spencer pointed out the misogynistic Islamic texts in which women are depicted as inferiors and Allah directs that those “from whom you fear disobedience” are to be beaten — quite the fit for Tate.

But now, Tate has gone a step further and actually praised the Islamic State, which has engaged in the beheadings of infidels, throwing gays off rooftops, raping and beating of infidel women, etc. He has claimed that the Islamic State is comprised of “real Muslims.” And indeed, aside from politically correct fiction, the deeds of the Islamic state are abundantly supported in Islamic texts, which is why ISIS’ behavior has so many precedents in 1400 years of jihad.

I have had the honor in the past on several occasions to interview the kind and humble Reverend Andrew White, also known as “The Vicar of Baghdad.” At one point, he was providing reports to the West about the Islamic State’s activity, since journalists had been driven out of ISIS domains. In the article, “The Vicar of Baghdad: ‘I’ve looked through the Quran trying to find forgiveness… there isn’t any‘”, White makes the connection between what he had seen firsthand with the Islamic State and what is written in Islamic texts:

Here White is out of step with liberal opinion. He agrees absolutely that Isis is uniquely horrible, but he thinks the problem of talking to them comes from within the Quran itself.

‘The trouble is a lack of forgiveness in Islam. I have looked through the Quran trying to find forgiveness… there isn’t any. If you find it, tell me. This makes it very difficult to talk to Isis because they can show you quite clearly that it is what Allah wants. They can justify their position when Allah says you should combat and fight the infidel and they say, “Well, these are infidels.” So the question is, how can you prove that these are not infidels? And you can’t.’……

Isis is now too dangerous. ‘Isis is on the doorstep of Baghdad. Their bombs are going off all the time,’ says White. Not least last Friday, when, before the Paris atrocity, a suicide bomber blew up 18 Shia Muslims. Has he ever been personally threatened? ‘I invited an Isis man to dinner to talk once,’ says White, ‘But he replied -saying that if he came he would chop my head off.’

St George’s, White’s church in Baghdad, once had a congregation of more than 6,000 and a school, a clinic, and a food bank. This great community has been more than decimated by Isis. ‘They killed over 1,000 of my congregation,’ he says. ‘Can you believe that? And now the others have fled, too.’

1400 years has proven that Islam is not a religion of peace. ISIS is in keeping with Islamic tradition. Of course, there are Muslims who ascribe to living peaceably among non-Muslims, but this is not in accordance with normative Islam.

As loathsome as Andrew Tate is, he is correct in stating that members of ISIS “are the real Muslims.” Muslims who support peace first need to admit the obvious problem within their religion and stop deceiving infidels.

This is the reason why Muslims also kill their fellow Muslims in droves: because the people who are being murdered are not considered to be the correct kind of Muslim, or are not Islamic enough.

The ideas of wanting to live peaceably with infidels and of honoring the principle of equality of rights for all people are not found in the history and practice of normative Islam.

Christian persecution, the jihad against Israel, Muslims killing other Muslims, Muslim rape gangs, forced conversions, child marriage, the beating of women, full female coverings, the “Islamophobia” battering ram which aims to shut down the freedom of speech, Islamic blasphemy laws, forced conversions, female genital mutilation, the fear that has been struck into Westerners if they dare to insult Muhammad (Samuel Paty is an example of what can happen), and more are all founded upon normative Islamic teaching.

All of it is backed by Islamic texts and history, as has been explained in detail at this site innumerable times over the last two decades. What more do infidels need to be convinced of this?

British-American Influencer Andrew Tate Converts To Islam

Controversial British-American online influencer Andrew Tate, who recently converted to Islam, said in a now-deleted viral TikTok video that “ISIS are the real Muslims.” The TikTok video was shared on October 25 by a pro-ISIS media outlet on Telegram, which praised Tate for his statements.

Later, on October 29, Tate discussed his conversion and beliefs in an October 29 podcast with British Muslim podcaster Mohammad Hijab, saying that elites in Western cultures promote feminism so that women are forced to work outside the home while their children are indoctrinated through schools, the internet, and “the matrix.”

A former professional boxer, Tate gained notoriety for his provocative remarks on social media, many of which have been widely condemned as sexist and misogynistic. Several social media platforms – including Facebook, TikTok, Twitter, and YouTube – consequently banned Tate’s accounts,[1] yet he retains a presence and following online, with both his supporters and detractors continuing to widely circulate his video clips.

The following is an overview of Tate’s conversion announcement, viral TikTok video, podcast interview, and the response of the pro-ISIS media outlet.

Tate Announces Conversion To Islam On Gettr.

In an October 24, 2022, post on his Gettr account, Tate announced that he converted to Islam, writing: “This is why I’m Muslim. Any Christian who believes in good and understands the true battle against evil must convert. ‘So be patient, Indeed the promise of Allah is TRUTH.’ Quran 30:60.”

The post included a video purportedly showing a transgender Methodist minister preaching at a church service…..

In Viral TikTok Video, Andrew Tate Says: “ISIS Are The Real Muslims”

On October 25, 2022, Bariqah News Agency, a pro-Islamic State (ISIS) media outlet, shared a TikTok video of American-British social media influencer Andrew Tate, in which he described ISIS as “real Muslims.”

In the now-deleted viral video – which was previously published on a TikTok account associated with Tate, @teacher_tate – Tate can be heard praising ISIS, saying:

“ISIS is the real Muslims because ISIS does exactly what the book says. Kill everyone who’s not a Muslim and chop people’s heads off and set them on fire and be fucking raging lunatics. But all the other Muslims go: ‘they’re not real Muslims because I read the book and ignore those parts.’ Well then, you’re not fucking Muslim, because you’re ignoring the f**king book.”
